Sasquatch sighting in Kentucky (1980)
In 1980 two men claiming to be Smithsonian field agents visited the grandmother's farm for two days after magazine coverage. They toured the garden and orchard, noted twisted limbs, cast footprints and a supposed sitting impression, collected hair and produce, and recorded audio. At night the family showed them figures with a spotlight, with up to three seen, and the visitors played a scream recording that was followed by distant chatter.
Several sightings reported.
The reporter's father was squirrel hunting in deep cover near Patoka Lake when he noticed what looked like legs across a slough by a tree. The figure left on two feet and headed toward the lake after appearing to notice it was observed. The father hurried out and said nothing until he was miles away, then advised returning only with a larger-caliber rifle.
Man sees ape-like animal in back yard
The owner heard noises by his fenced trash area late at night and went to look with a rifle. He saw an ape-like animal outside the fence, fired into the air, and watched it stand up with its shoulders and head above the 6-foot fence before fleeing through bushes toward the woods. Footprints were left only in soft dirt by the bushes and one was preserved as a plaster cast.
Sasquatch sighting near Chattanooga, Tennessee
While riding on the interstate, the witness saw a wide, large figure from chest to waist watching traffic and shaking its head rapidly before jumping back out of view. He later returned, hiked the muddy banks and found barefoot prints in several places, made casts, logged GPS and posted photos.
Vocalization in Ohio
Woken by crashing and the dog barking, the witness heard a juvenile on the porch beating the deck and plucking the air conditioner while an adult gave gibberish instructions and the juvenile answered with tongue clicks. Then something wailed on the dog box. In the morning he found a twisted tree, shredded sapling and tracks and made a cast. With a flashlight he saw something large and black moving up the hill.
Tracks
Researchers visiting the property over about two years reported finding different-sized footprints, thermal-video figures that popped up and down in grass, rocks thrown while hiking, wood knocks and rock clacks, and a juvenile crouched in grass that one researcher approached. They interpret size differences as four individuals including two juveniles and two adults. They also collected casts, audio, and other trace evidence.
Sasquatch sighting in Washington
A researcher patrolling a closed watershed followed fresh tracks uphill in mud and filmed a subject as it walked away. He later cast the prints, which another researcher regarded as among the best ever. The teller defends the footage against claims the tracks were faked.
Sasquatch sighting in Oregon
At a rural house on the Oregon coast the household experienced repeated night howls, growls, talking-like sounds, dogs reacting, motion lights, a hand smudge, and large footprints in hard gravel. Young children repeatedly described dark hairy figures with flat noses and red eyes pawing or scratching at a bedroom window, motioning to come outside, and disappearing and reappearing.
Sasquatch sighting in Missouri
Less than a month before the interview four researchers walked across a grassy field on a Missouri property at night to retrieve footprint casts. The guest stopped to scan with a thermal camera and recorded a round bright head rising from tall grass by the creek. It dropped and reappeared four times, then vanished, and a later visit found a wallowed grass shelter opening to the creek where a comparison man's head looked half as large.
